Thanks I'll give them a try

Does anyone know the correct model Bianchi 9R holster which might fit my Ruger SP 101 3 inch barrel spur less revolver

9R2 for 38/357 I found 1 marked as above. Does not mention barrel length. Or frame size. Guessing J or K up to 2 1/2 inch? Might give it a try with a 2 1/2 inch L frame
